Yeah, I consider 70G as quite small. I have known people setting up 500gig Vdisks !! 70G It is more space than I will fill up on the disk.

Windows recommends a minimum of 20 gigs of free space. But I think its useful to have  10 - 20 gigs more than that for temporary files and the desktop etc. I often have video /image files of up to 10 gigs. I may work on these on the desktop before putting on the array. Also, the vdisk size will be different to the file size on the disk until the vdisk is filled.

Good idea about the script 

Thanks for the Vid, I always forget which folder the drivers are in within the virtio ISO. 
I wonder if this person still feels that 30G is more than enough for his/her Win10 VMs...?

hello - is there anyway to have the VM automatically sleep or hibernate when not being used?
